Sign the Petition to

David Cameron UK Prime Minister, All Ambassador Envoys to the UN .

THIS IS A GLOBAL PETITION AND HAS BEEN TRANSLATED INTO OVER 7 LANGUAGES. On May 18th it will be presented to the British Prime Minister. The NoToDogMeat campaign team will be received at no 10 Downing St.
We invite all animal lovers to download a copy and take to your governments and embassies.
We the UK Charity World Protection of Dogs and Cats in the Meat Trade do hereby formally oppose the illegal trade, torture and daily slaughter of millions dogs and cats including stolen pets primarily in South Korea, China, Vietnam, Laos, Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia yet not excluding all countries where this atrocity occurs.

We petition and call to account the Governments of the United Kingdom Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Holland, Switzerland. Sweden, Denmark, the United States of America, Canada, Australia, The Asian Continents, South Afirica, Brazil, Israel , the Vatican State as well as the United Nations.

We formally request that our respective governments act with immediate effect to end this unacceptable daily torture of sentient beings that is punishable by criminal offence everywhere else in the world.

We petition world authorities to enforce a global ban on the unregulated trade of dogs and cats for the purpose of consumption and request sanctions for non-compliance. There is no place for BOILING DOGS AND CATSALIVE and DELIBERATELY MAKING THEM SUFFER to satisfy culinary preference of South East Asia in this millennium.

We petition our respective governments – the UN to formally respond as to why Dog and Cat meat has consistently and without exception fallen outside all international animal welfare laws and why there exists no reliable data and statistics on dog and cat farming, transport, slaughter and processing.

We petition our respective governments to respond as to why multilateral trade agreements with the countries of South East Asia have been put in place to include animal welfare provisions yet on each and every occasion dogs and cats are excluded.

We respectfully remind our Governments of the five freedoms set down by International animal welfare organizations and the World Organizations for Animal Health These being: 1. Freedom from hunger or thirst by ready access to fresh water and a diet to maintain full health and vigour 2. Freedom from discomfort by providing an appropriate environment including shelter and a comfortable resting area 3. Freedom from pain, injury or disease by prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment 4. Freedom to express normal behaviour by providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal's own kind 5. Freedom from fear and distress by ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering .

We petition our respective governments to take tangible steps to end the Illegal and Unregulated Dog and Cat Meat Trade in South East Asia and to start in 2013 .We request this action exceeds the usual diplomatic routes that have not resulted in change We respectfully remind our governments it is unconscionable to remain silently partisan to this wanton torture. This is clearly not farming and the outdated adage of cultural difference can no longer hold validity.

THIS petition and opposition to the trade is not based just on moral or ethical reasons, it is based on scientific data and clear breach of international regulations.

We seek a formal response to our petition-, which is to be submitted in both paper and electronic format in writing to the address provided in the respective countries petitioned.

FoodTorture Culture and deliberately making an animal suffer to satisfy the palette of an individual or nation is unacceptable . To put it simply, boiling dogs and cats alive, beating them skinning them alive either in public or in private can not continue while the world's governments watch and continue to trade with the perpetrators .

It has no place in this Millenium and our society. It never has and it never will. Support The World Protection of Dogs and Cats in the Meat Trade and the Global Movement NoToDogMeat
